For the future: this question and others like it would be better asked
on debian-user. Debian-devel is essentially a list for Debian developers
and others to discuss the development of Debian - including off-t
We should pay attention.
the sarge is very expected release and it's late has already generated
enough noise about the debian release management.
i think we should just release sarge and try to reduce the noise around sarge.

Conventional wisdom is that release management involves so much
drudgery and so little recognition that the *least* we can do is let
the release manager decide on codenames and version number

Release numbers, like release code names, are up to the release managers
to decide. Since neither is particularly important, there's really not
much point in discussing them at length:

Now that sarge is frozen we have /etc/debian_version, the installation

As far as I can see - Debian "Sarge" / Debian "testing" / Debian
GNU/Linux 3.1 - now has support both for Reiserfs [?? 3.6.19??]
and Reiser4 [?? 1.0.3 ??]. There is a kernel patch against version
2.6.8 for Reiser4.
Hope this helps - everyone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :)
